Finding the projection of a given point on the set of solutions of a linear programming problem

The problem of finding the projections of points on the sets of solutions of primal and dual problems of linear programming is considered. This problem is reduced to a single solution of the problem of minimizing a new auxiliary function, starting from some threshold value of the penalty coefficient. Estimates of the threshold value are obtained. A software implementation of the proposed method is compared with some known commercial and research software packages for solving linear programming problems.
